Counter-Strike: Liquid vs Passion UA (BO3) - ESL Pro League Stage 1

Unified Resolution Criteria (Consistent across platforms)

Core resolution logic:

• Match winner (Liquid vs Passion UA) resolves to the team winning 2 maps in the BO3; mid-match forfeits award the win to the non-forfeiting team.
• Map 1 and Map 2 winners resolve based on the team winning that specific map; if the map is not completed, resolution is 50-50.
• Games Total (O/U 2.5) resolves Over if 3+ maps are played, Under if fewer than 3 maps are played; forfeits and walkovers count if the match is completed.
• Map Handicap (TL -1.5 and PSSN.UA -1.5) resolves based on the map differential; Liquid wins if +2 or more maps ahead, Passion UA wins if +2 or more maps ahead; forfeits and walkovers count if the match is completed.
• Match cancellation, delay beyond 7 days without play beginning, or incomplete forfeits all resolve 50-50.
• If match begins but is not completed and one team wins via opponent forfeiture (not the clinching map), Games Total and Handicap markets resolve 50-50; if the clinching map is forfeited, the match is considered completed and markets resolve normally.

Edge cases & Clarifications:

• Incomplete Match with Forfeiture: If the match begins but is not completed and one team wins due to opponent forfeiture (not the clinching map), Games Total and Map Handicap markets resolve 50-50. However, if the clinching map itself is forfeited, the match is considered completed and all markets resolve based on the final map count.
• Pre-Start Forfeiture: If either team forfeits before the match begins (walkover), the match winner market resolves 50-50; Games Total and Handicap markets also resolve 50-50.
• Delay Beyond 7 Days: If the match is delayed beyond 7 days from the scheduled date (March 1, 2026) without play beginning, all markets resolve 50-50.
• Map Not Completed: If Map 1 or Map 2 is not completed for any reason, that map's winner market resolves 50-50. The match winner, Games Total, and Handicap markets may still resolve if the match is completed via other means.
• Source Fallback Timing: HLTV.org is the primary source; if final results are not published within 2 hours of match conclusion, credible reporting consensus (including video evidence) may be used as an alternative source.
